Well the show is over, the results are in and in my opinion the show was a solid success. Everyone we talked to said the traffic was the best they had seen in years. The attendees we talked with had a variety of projects to discuss and real current needs. It was very encouraging to see all the manufacturers come out with such energy. We asked the question earlier; if trade shows are still valid ways to connect with customers. I believe the answer is yes.

Continuing our commitment to green building practices, community activism and supporting education, Accurate Perforating is proud to announce our partnership with the Green School House Series. The Green Schoolhouse Series is a catalyst for change; a unique public/private collaboration that focuses on meeting the critical needs of children, education, and the environment.

Are industrial trade shows a thing of the past? When is the last time you visited a show? I still believe they are a great way to see a wide variety of products and services from a group of premium vendors in a very cost effective and efficient time frame. The internet is great, but sometimes isn’t it better to really talk to a person? It’s helpful to actually touch a product, see and feel the quality before you buy it. That is why we will be exhibiting at the Design2Part show in Schaumburg, IL this May 1 & 2. If you are in the area, come by and see us at booth #547.

When he’s not rockin’ it out on the Auto-CAD, he’s probably doing something related to sports. An avid sports fan, Bryan follows the Bears, the Redskins, the Cubs and the Gunners. He doesn’t merely watch sports though. Bryan also likes to tough it out in Adventure Races like the Tough Mudder Competition.

Recently, we here at Accurate have gotten a number of requests for Corten Steel. For those of you who may not know, Corten Steel rusts. Generally speaking this is a bad thing, right? Well not in this case! When Corten Steel is exposed to the elements it creates a protective layer that actually helps the metal last longer and stay stronger! Check out some of these awesome pictures of how people used perforated Corten Steel. Maybe perforated Corten Steel is just what you need for your next project!
